Ok, I want to set my studio up in the garage (2-car) but I have limited dampening material and the garage is basically an echo chamber. Concrete floor, all sheetrock not to mention 2 ceiling heights... First, I was thinking of putting 7mm Laminate wood, from ikea, over the concrete:

I also have about 12 2x4' pieces of auralex (yeah I know, but atleast it's a start... and I'll probably buy some corner bass traps (or make some of rigid fiberglass) and make a couple diffusors (such as the one made from 2x2's). I'm trying to decide if I'd be able to afford making a decent sounding room out of this or if I should stick with the 10x10 bedroom. I'll mainly be tracking acoustic guitar and vocals (most of the other stuff will be done in the computer or at commercial studios). Who's got suggestions on how I could make this room work? Here's a diagram of the garage:
